Performance Notes:The timings and tempos are all approximations, guides to the performers and conductor. In ‘free-rhythm’ sections of the piece, spacing is proportional. And while different pages have different time scales, there is only one time scale per page.
Dynamic markings are objective; a horn p should sound at the same level as a flute p.
The Conductor part in the score is intended to provide the major cues which will be in all parts, but the conductor is also expected to conduct the tempos written in the part.
It is suggested that the groups rehearse separately at first, and that, when put together, the piece sounds like seven small groups playing together rather than 28 individuals.
